Would you like to know the best part of owning your own business? (I like to call it "business" like I'm a big shot ;-) Bartering. I know some REALLY cool people...that do REALLY cool stuff....so usually I feel like I make out like a bandit. They get a sign....I get something WAY cooler. Several months ago I had the pleasure of meeting Becky from Willow Avenue Pottery. Have you met? You must....she's DE.light.FUL. Delightful. And she lives in a neato geodesic dome....she's super cool like that. ANYWAY....Becky's studio needed a sign...and...well...that's what I do, that's who I am. ;-)

SO.....Becky got a sign....and I got a bowl.....an amazing, beautiful, custom fruit bowl. We'll get to that. First, however, I wanted to buy one of Becky's beautiful yarn bowls for my mom, knitter extraordinaire. I got to choose the glaze colors and everything! Becky did an amazing job. It is beautiful.

Hello Friends!

Nice to Meetcha!
